Accidental Dark Lord

Kyle Thompson’s greatest achievement was making a semi-consistent latte. Then a sentient gauntlet bonded to his arm at a LARP convention and declared him the prophesied Dark Lord.

Now he’s got 45 minutes to assemble a villainous court, conquer a village, and figure out why his magical artifact subsists on ledgers instead of souls. His minions include an anxious demon bureaucrat, an influencer barbarian obsessed with lighting, and a goblin warlock who won’t stop saying “brainrot.”

Turns out Kyle’s real superpower isn’t charisma or combat, it’s middle management. When an ancient wraith demands tribute, Kyle doesn’t reach for a sword. He reaches for a compliance audit.
